Sudarshan Setu: Prime Minister Narendra Modi embarked on a remarkable journey today as he delved into the depths of the Arabian Sea off the coast of Gujarat to conduct an underwater puja at the ancient site of Dwarka. Dwarka, steeped in the lore of Lord Krishna, once thrived as a bustling city before being submerged under the sea centuries ago.
Scuba diving expeditions are routinely organized near Beyt Dwarka island, offering glimpses of the submerged remnants of ancient Dwarka, meticulously unearthed by archaeologists.
Today, captivating visuals of PM Modi adorned in scuba gear, gracefully descending into the azure waters to pay homage to the revered city, captivated the digital sphere.
In a symbolic gesture, PM Modi offered peacock feathers—an emblematic tribute to Lord Krishna—as a mark of reverence to the ancient city.

Sharing his profound experience, PM Modi expressed on social media, “To pray in the city of Dwarka, submerged beneath the waters, was a profoundly divine encounter. It instilled within me a sense of connection to an epoch of spiritual magnificence and timeless devotion. May Bhagwan Shri Krishna bestow blessings upon us all.”
Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister inaugurated the ‘Sudarshan Setu’, the nation’s longest cable-stayed Sudarshan Setu bridge spanning 2.32 km, seamlessly connecting Beyt Dwarka island to mainland Okha in Gujarat’s Devbhumi Dwarka district.
The Sudarshan Setu bridge, adorned with verses from the Srimad Bhagavad Gita and depictions of Lord Krishna, stands as a testament to India’s cultural and spiritual heritage.
Constructed at a cost of ₹979 crore, the 2.32 km marvel includes a 900-meter central double span cable-stayed portion and a 2.45 km long approach road, serving as a vital link in the region’s infrastructure.
As PM Modi continues to Sudarshan Setu bridge the realms of tradition and modernity, his reverence for ancient heritage and dedication to progress shine brightly, illuminating the path towards a harmonious and prosperous future.
